Paper Rose Tutorial

I received a ton of requests on the Bo Bunny blog from people wanting to know how I made the roses on the wreath that was o the BB blog (see my post before this to see the wreath). So, I made a little video on how to make your own. Please be kind and remember that I am no professional! :) There is a part where I escape off of the screen for a little while...oops. So, I am following this video up with some photos of what you misssed. Here's the video...

and here the photos....

This first one is what your square piece of paper looks like after you have folded it in half diagonally three times.

this second one shows me holding the tip that is folded, you will cut the top of your petal on the end that I am NOT holding.

This third photo is what your triangle should look like after you have cut the top of the flower.

This last photo is of me now holding the rounded end of the flower petal that I just cut off in the previous photo. You now need to cut off the pointed tip. This is what your flower should look like once you have done that.

Hope that helps those of you that were having difficulty visualizing it!

Thanks for the follow-up. Your first video made me laugh out loud. I am sure we have all either done a video like that or taken pictures of people without heads. The video brought back many memories...

My wish...is for a photo tutorial. Sigh...I have dial up and cannot load your video, I got a little info today from seeing the pictures, but I really need more! Anyway you might do one? They are gorgeous flowers!

Love, love, love those flowers! Thank you SO MUCH for the tutorial. I watched it and had to immediately go and make one of those flowers. Mine don't quite look as beautiful as yours, but I'm going to keep practicing. Thank you again!

luv the roses. Thanks for showing me how to make them. Your friend Robyn had some nice cards but couldn't leave a comment because typepad and my isp don't get along. Thankful that you are on blogger. Hope your holiday season is filled to the brim and runneth over.

WOWthat is stunning. I'm not going to even attempt that (not this year anyway) as it will be an embarrasment compared to yours! us novices have to start with the easy things and work our way up! thank you for sharing the tutorial! i'm going to bookmark this page for next year!!!
